Noma kunjalo Toyota Ayikabi nayo imoto kagesi emakethe, ingenye yezinhlobo ezisebenza kakhulu mayelana nocwaningo lwebhethri. Umnyakazo wakhe wokugcina a isivumelwano neNkampani ye-BYD, umphakeli oyinhloko wamabhethri eselula anikezela ngemikhiqizo efana ne-Motorola, Nokia noma LG.
Le nkampani yomdabu waseShayina isivele inothile isipiliyoni emkhakheni wezimoto sibonga i-BYD Auto. Inkampani engaphansi osekuphele iminyaka engu-16 ikhiqiza izimoto, amaveni namabhasi, phakathi kwayo asebenayo ekagesi ebizwa ngokuthi E6 nge-300 km yokuzimela.
Isivumelwano phakathi kwemidondoshiya
IPhini LikaMengameli Eliphezulu le-BYD, u-Lian Yu-bo, liphawule ngalesi sivumelwano: “Umgomo wethu uwukuhlanganisa amandla e-BYD ekuthuthukisweni kwemakethe yezimoto zikagesi kanye nokuncintisana, nobuchwepheshe bekhwalithi nokuphepha kweToyota. Ngakho-ke sizokwazi ukuhlinzeka ngezimoto ezisebenza ngogesi ezingcono kakhulu.”
IPhini likaMengameli weToyota, uShigeki Terashi, wengeze emazwini kazakwabo: “Ngomgomo ofanayo wokuqhubekisela phambili ukusetshenziswa kabanzi kwezimoto ezifakwe ugesi, siyabonga ukuthi i-BYD neToyota bangaba ‘ozakwethu’, abakwazi ukuyeka ukuqhudelana kwethu futhi basebenzisane.”
Amabhethri amasha eToyota BEV
Sekuyiminyaka iToyota igxile kuyo izimoto ezi-hybrid noma i-hydrogen, nakuba isanda kumemezela ukuthi izomaketha izimoto zikagesi ezintathu eminyakeni emibili ezayo. Igama lolu hlobo olunikezile kulolu hlu olusha lwezimoto zikagesi i-BEV (Izimoto zikagesi zebhethri). Ngesi-Spanish: Izimoto zikagesi zebhethri. Isibonelo esihle yilesi I-Ultra-compact BEV Concept ezofika ngo-2020.
Isifinyezo se-BEV yenza umsebenzi ucace kakhudlwana yalokho abanye abamane bakubize izimoto zikagesi. Ngale ndlela i- zihluke ezimotweni ze-hydrogen ukuthi sekuyiminyaka bethuthuka. Ungakhohlwa ukuthi nakuba basebenzisa igesi esikhundleni sebhethri, umphumela ubuye ube umsinga ohambisa izinjini zikagesi.
Akukhona okokuqala ukuthi i-automaker yaseJapan ifinyelele isivumelwano nenkampani yaseChina. Ezinyangeni ezimbalwa ezedlule umemezele eyakhe ukusebenzisana ne-CATL enkulu yaseChina, kanye nokuthuthukiswa nokwenza amabhethri ezimoto zikagesi. Okufanele kwengezwe kuyo ngokubambisana nabakwaBMW ngenjongo efanayo.
